Scarborough Fair
by Captain Hook Fri Dec 10, 2010 3:46 pm
Once upon a time, in a kingdom not so far away, lived a young princess. She was lovely and was all you could wish for in beauty. But she was still unhappy.Noticing his daughter's sadness, her father the king sent out a proclamation that all eligible young men were to come to the castle at once to court her. Soon, the palace was filled with young men from near and far, all after the lovely princess' hand.But, she turned each one away.
Angered by his daughter's attitude towards the men, the king declared that she would have no choice in who she would wed, and he called back the three he'd felt were the best;
A knight of the Crusades, Sir Banquo Duff
A Prince of one of the many neighboring kingdoms, Prince Henry VI
And a Wealthy land owner, who was twenty years the girl's senior, Lord Andrew Witall
Discovering her options, the princess fled to the highest room in the tallest tower and locked herself inside. Enraged, the king sent the suitors away and cursed her to live in the tower for the rest of her days. The princess obeyed, not wanting to leave as long as her father insisted she wed. And so, she lived out her days in the tower until her 18th birthday, when a minstrel was roaming the grounds, playing and singing as he strode along.
The princess spotted him, and called down.
"sir! Sit, please. Sing for me." she called to him. Recognizing her as the princess, the minstrel obeyed and sang for her until sunset.
"You will come back tomorrow." she commanded him. He bowed low, his lute on his back.
"Yes Milady." he said respectfully, and left.

Lovely. 
We'll start now.
Talon woke up and yawned. He'd been going to play for the princess everyday for a week now. He couldn't believe he was actually enjoying it. He dressed, his clothes a little dirty, and the shirt only able to be buttoned halfway. he sighed, and pulled his shoes on then put on his hat. Being a peasant wasn't great, but he'd been surviving perfectly fine so far. He picked up his lute and a piece of bread and left on his way to play for her.

Isobella was still asleep, but she woke up a few minutes later when the sun starting shining through the tower's large window. She got up and stretched. She picked up a long, green and brown dress. She tied up her hair in a ponytail with a leather strap.

Talon performed as he walked along, earning a few coins here and there. He arrive at the palace and went around to her tower.
"I'm here Milady!" he called, as he had for the past few weeks.

"Oh, fantastic!" she said happily. She went down, and opened up the door. "Quickly, quickly, before my father sees," she motioned.

He went where he was told, moving quickly, as he could hear guards coming.
"I'm sorry about my clothes." he said, glancing down at what he was wearing.

"Don't worry about something as petty as that," she said quietly shutting the door,"you're still alive, you can play an instrument well, and you have food to eat. She started walking up the steps, smiling.

He smiled slightly, following her up.
"True." he said, his lute swung across his back. He set his hands behind his head as he walked. His thin legs carried him easily up. He never tired of walking the steps each day. He had the energy for it and was in quite good shape from all the walking he usually did, being a minstrel.

"I'm sorry for this walking you have to do everyday," she said reaching the final step to her room's door,"I have been thinking these past weeks, why not I just go with you, as a minstrel? I tire of being told who to wed, some over twenty years my age!"

"it's alright. I walk a lot for my job anyways." he smiled gently. He liked the idea of her coming with him. But then again..
"You're a princess. I don't think it'd be safe for you to come with me."
((Do you think they're already in love??))

"That may be true," she said opening her door,"but, I don't like being the princess. There's so many rules, and I'm always unhappy. None of the suitors compare with people like you, those that aren't bond by those around them."
(Yeah, but they don't know it yet.)

He smiled a little more.
"Ah yes. The life of making a pittance and killing animals with sharp teeth." he laughed, "Now. What would you like to hear today princess?"
((K. Do you think he dad's figured it out??))

She giggled a little and smiled. "Anything is fine," she said sweetly.
(Its possible, I'd say.)

She settled down in her bed, listening to it mindlessly.

After a few hours, Talon stopped to let his fingers a moment's rest. He shook his hand once or twice.

"Why not play something inspired by the current season?" she suggested, waiting for him to rest up.

"Yes Milady." he smiled softly and began playing again after a moment.
((About what season do you think it is?))

He enjoyed sitting there and playing for her. It was, for some reason, much more enjoyable then wandering about and playing where he could get money.
